Shame about HMO - always seemed like a side passion project for Mufuziel.

The bounties of bathos line was/is good and I have every piece (sans one alternate color way). Great designs and super high quality production pieces.

Yeah bathos is great, but I'm pretty happy with the 3. Wouldn't have gotten the 4th I don't think

We are still at the beginning, guys. HMO, Level 52, Oniri (although it seems to get a 2nd chance). But you've seen nothing.

"The winter is coming" was GOAT's thread more than >1y ago.

The extremely high prices along with the fact that SPACE is the biggest constraint for old, seasoned collectors is going to SUFFOCATE many companies.

Nearly ALL of you mocked Forps and called him names back then or laughed at him.

Are you STILL laughing?

A couple of us had been asking HMO about their future plans and all they said was “we’re coming back soon”, but it’s been too long at this point. When the website goes dark, we’ll know it’s truly over.

They truly had amazing quality products.

I mean it's just not a strong license, not enough fans.

Also hard to trust him as he has scammed people in the past.

As for HMO it's been about a year (last word from them was August of last year) since they've said anything. Probably a good chance they may not make anything new in the future. They did say in their last message that they are still working on stuff but a year is a pretty long time.
I was always under the impression Mufizal Mokhtar was a good guy with all the right intentions, which i think he was.

It was mentioned Daniel Hinze was involved in the Bathos line. He demanded $50,000 from H.M.O. (allegedly).
H.M.O. had already had factory issues with Sorrow. Sorrow was delaid, and possibly moved to another factory.
Sorrow shipped eventually.
